Interphase Prophase Prometaphase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Cytokinesis Cellular organelles begin to fragment Chromatids develop a kinetochore Replication of DNA occurs Chromosomes line up at the equator of the cell Chromosomes are located at opposite poles Spindle fibers begin to radiate from the centrosome Centrosomes move to opposite poles Consists of the G S and G phases Chromosomes decondense and return to chromatin The nuclear membrane and nucleolus breakdown Centrosomes are replicated Separation of sister chromatids occur Preparation for cell division Microtubules begin to bind to the kinetochore Elongation of the cell begins The first point where the chromosomes become visible 1 Separation of the cytoplasmic components of the cell Replenishes energy stores and proteins needed for cell division Two new daughter cells are completely separated from one another Nuclear envelope and nucleolus reform around the chromatin
